Apple moves to Intel processors in 2006 and 2007.

I'm pretty excited!  Apple laptops will once again be able to compete with everyone else on speed.  (They are using the same processors afterall)

Good news considering that laptops outsold desktops for the first time last month.

I've been stuck up here in Ft. Collins for work all week and it's been a fun week. I spent the week before this getting over the flu and I almost made it. I'm still stuck with a runny nose though. I left from work early to catch my flight up here. About a quarter of the way here the whole plane started spinning just like that song on the radio ( Read more... )

The spammers have finally gotten smart. There is a new zombie around that sends spam from infected PCs through their ISP rather then from the PC directly. This means it's no longer possible to tell if a message is spam based on where it's sent from, because it all appears to come from the same place, your internet provider. We'll try filters, ( Read more... )

...when you pay for it. I went to Qdoba today for lunch just before a four hour meeting. My burrito was all made and I reached for my wallet to pay. As I pulled my wallet out I remembered my card had been declined this morning for gas so I paid with cash, leaving me with one dollar. Panic sets in so I try the card anyway. Declined. (I still ( Read more... )

So far this week, two jump starts, one new battery, oil change, one flat tire and three new tires. That's by Wednesday. I wonder what else will happen this week ( Read more... )

That's going to be the name of my next super-hero. Yes, after years of avoiding MMORPGs I've started to play City of Heros and I'm having a great time. I'm not quite sure why I started playing, it just looked fun and I haven't been disappointed yet. I've been avoiding online games for so long because I've been afraid of the addiction to MUDs I ( Read more... )

Right now I'm at my third gate at the airport. The people at the counter have assured us we won't be moving again, but I'm not holding my breath. The picture was from the second gate, right now I'm almost straight across from it. We were supposed to be boarding the plane 15 minutes ago or so, but the plane to Jacksonville is still sitting here ( Read more... )

I rebuilt a Windows XP machine tonight in 3 hours which isn't too shaby. That included backing up the old data, reimporting addresses/mail, installing 40+ critical updates, spy ware removal software, other misc software and a full virus scan. This being only the second Windows install I've done in the past four years or so, I was glad very little ( Read more... )

You've probably heard of Google's new email service, Gmail. I just got an account today and I have to say it looks pretty slick. The big thing about it is the 1000MB of disk space you get, but they've added several other small features that put it above any other web email service I've seen. They'll probably soon be copied though ( Read more... )
